Psalms 127
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1A Song of Ascents; of Solomon. Except the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it; except the LORD keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
1若不是耶和华建造房屋, 建造的人就枉然劳力; 若不是耶和华看守城池, 看守的人就枉然警醒。
2It is vain for you that ye rise early, and sit up late, ye that eat the bread of toil; so He giveth unto His beloved in sleep.
2你们清晨早起,夜晚安歇, 吃劳碌得来的饭,本是枉然; 惟有耶和华所亲爱的,必叫他安然睡觉。
3Lo, children are a heritage of the LORD; the fruit of the womb is a reward.
3儿女是耶和华所赐的产业; 所怀的胎是他所给的赏赐。
4As arrows in the hand of a mighty man, so are the children of one's youth.
4少年时 所生 的儿女 好像勇士手中的箭。
5Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them; they shall not be put to shame, when they speak with their enemies in the gate.
5箭袋充满的人便为有福; 他们在城门口和仇敌说话的时候, 必不至于羞愧。
